CM Punk has the “cult of personality” but he also will likely be apart of a cult in a new comedy coming in the fall.
“Let’s Start A Cult ” is set to release in theaters starting on October 25 and it will be featuring CM Punk. The first trailer for the film released earlier this Friday and Punk shared the video on his Instagram stories.
The film stars comedian Stavros Halkias as Chip who is a cult leader that survives a mass suicide but so does one of his other members William. The duo goes along to recruit new members and one of those happens to be CM Punk. It’s not totally confirmed, but Punk says the name “Three Balls Billy” in the trailer and that could be the name of his role in the film (however, he could also be referring to the character “William.”) Serendipituouly enough, the movie also features a female character that seemingly appears to portray a former pro wrestler who also joins the ranks of the new cult on tap.
You can check out the first trailer for the film below:
CM Punk isn’t the only wrestler conjuring up filmmaking news on Friday. It was also reported today that MJF will be apart of “Happy Gilmore 2.” Before the news hit of “Let’s Start A Cult,” one of the last comedic roles Punk played was in the Starz series, “Heels” as Ricky Rabies. Along with the “Mr. McMahon” docuseries, “Heels” has just hit Netflix.
